Is Rock Music Dead? Slash Thinks Rock N' Roll Has Become A Bastard Stepchild, What Do You Think?

Slash thinks rock n' roll has become a bastard stepchild, what do you think?

It is becoming harder and harder to ignore the facts, but as fan interest seems to dwindle, rock n' roll seems to be a thing of the past. Even though there are bands far and wide waving the banner of rock n' roll, are things becoming too safe and diluted? 

In a recent interview with the Manchester Evening News, Slash of Guns N' Roses fame stated "Rock and roll definitely needs a movement. It's become kind of the music industry's bothersome step child and what it needs is someone really committed to come and shake things up who doesn't give a shit if they make it." Is this a war cry for up and coming bands to realize their potential and to make rock n' roll dangerous again? We sure as hell hope so.

New drawing for the Go Devils - Pure Rock n' Roll

Been working on a few new illustrations that can be cranked out in an hour, compared to the ones that take way too much effort in all the details. Add in a lightning bolt thru the skull along with some loose text and that equals one cup of coffee down and my Sharpie practice for the day.

Since I began writing these blogs for Rusty Knuckles they have all been music related. It's the one topic I know the most about so it's what I write about. Though on a completely other level, this one is no different because music is how I came to know the people I'm writing about.
